Wiscetiquette: A Women’s Guide to UW-Madison

“The hows and whys of student social life” (1936); “A pipe course in Wisconsin student social conduct” (1938); “A brief brief on etiquette” (1947). At a time when women on UW–Madison’s campus lived under strict rules about dress, behavior, and curfews, a fascinating “etiquette” handbook was born. Conceived, written, edited, and published by women students at UW–Madison from approximately 1936-1960, Wiscetiquette contained a wealth of inside information on academics, social life, and traditions on campus.
